Good day,
My name is Louis Ebekalo a banker and I am contacting you in regards to a business transfer. Though
I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am
assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day, hence I plead you to read carefully till
the end.
I was the personal accounts manager to a deceased customer, a foreigner, Mr. Ken , a nationality of
your country who had an account with us here in Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). On July 7, 2005, in a
fatal accident, resulting in the loss many and unfortunately my client, his wife, and their three
children were among the people that died on that fateful day.
Of particular interest is this huge deposit with our bank here in my country Cote d'Ivoire in West
Africa (Ivory Coast), where the deceased has an account valued at about (16,450,720 USD). They have
issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or our bank will declare the account unserviceable
and thereby send the funds to the bank treasury. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the
relatives for the past years, I will seek your consent to present you as the beneficiary of the
account since you are a foreigner and probably share same last name with the deceased, so that the
proceeds of this account valued at (16,450,720 USD) can be paid to you and then you and I can share
the money.
This account is a special account called (suspense account) and in the account file, the deceased
did not enter any name as beneficiary in case of death as in this case now, hence you as a
foreigner and sharing same last name as my search proves, will easily pass as the beneficiary to
this account. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. I
guarantee that this will be executed under all legitimate arrangement that will protect you from
any breach of the law.
In your reply mail, I want you to give me your full names, address, date of birth, telephone and
fax numbers. If you can handle this with me, reach me now for more details.
Thanking you for your anticipated cooperation.
Sincerely,
Mr. Louis Ebekalo.
